You ever think about how we all look forward to summer, especially college students who just finished a fun, hardworking two semesters and want that time off, but when summer comes it isn't always cracked up to how you were dreaming it'd be?

I see from my own experience that I STILL have close friends I'd like to see, but for some reason do not have the time. For me at least, I think part of the reason is that most kids work in the summer, and you can't seem to find that certain hour in the day that works well for everyone. It's sad that we all have such high hopes for summer, and then at least for me I feel like all I do is work and also feel like summer is almost over. I spend all my mornings and nights at work, taking on two jobs and an internship, and have gone to my favorite place in the world, the Jersey Shore, ONCE since I got home in April. Only once. It's unfair, but at least us kids aren't alone and are sticking through it together.

Don't worry though. I am about to share with you guys my summer bucket list because yes, I still have one and would like to accomplish every single one on this list, even if I feel like it may not be possible. Some of these are Jersey based summer goals, but regardless, here are 71 things I want to do even though I am broke and don’t have all the time. The last couple are the most important by the way.
